  • Key Support for Trades Training Now Available for the North Fraser Region
    NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release February 27, 2015 KEY SUPPORT FOR TRADES TRAINING NOW AVAILABLE FOR THE NORTH FRASER REGION The Industry Training Authority introduces local Apprenticeship Advisor to act as an on-the-ground resource for apprentices and employers Coquitlam, BC – The Industry Training Authority (ITA) has introduced the Apprenticeship Advisor who will act as an on-the-ground resource for apprentices and employers in the North Fraser region. Over 30 local apprentices, employers and industry representatives gathered at the Executive Plaza Hotel and Conference Centre Coquitlam yesterday to meet Paul Zelinski, ITA’s Apprenticeship Advisor for the North Fraser, along with Gary Herman, ITA CEO. Paul Zelinski is a professional employment counsellor, advisor, and facilitator with a specialty in trades. He has an extensive knowledge of the BC apprenticeship system, and most recently worked as the trades program facilitator for Douglas College, where he was responsible for developing and instructing a skilled trades- focused curriculum. “This new resource will assist students to realize their career-focused academic goals and to graduate with the necessary requirements for more immediate transition to employment,” said MLA for Port Moody- Coquitlam Linda Reimer. “Paul Zelinski will be instrumental in building a knowledge base and awareness of the BC apprenticeship system, and will be a key liaison between apprentices and employer sponsors.” “We need to ensure that our children are prepared for the jobs of tomorrow,” said MLA for Coquitlam-Burke Mountain Douglas Horne. “Paul Zelinski will provide students and stakeholders with the necessary support for this program and will help our students with a smooth transition from school to work, and an earlier start to becoming certified in a trade." Apprenticeship Advisors serve as an extension of the ITA Customer Support team, and provide regional support to apprentices and sponsors in order to create a positive impact on continuation and completion rates for apprenticeship.
